  • 10 x Deadlift @ 65%

Every 2  minutes for 16 minutes (8 rounds)

  • 3 x Strict Press

Increase weight slowly since there are a lot of rounds ending at a heavy weight in the last set.

Then using 80% of the weight of the last set do 3 sets of

  • 6 x Strict Press

Then do 5 rounds for time

  • 50 x Double Unders
  • 5 x Strict Pullups

Results:  For the Strict Presses 80-95-105-115-125-130-135-140lbs (1 rep only in the last round).  Used 115lbs for the second part.  For the Metcon 7:56.

5 rounds

  • 3 x Front Squats
  • Rest 30 Seconds
  • 6 x Handstand Plate Walks
  • Rest 2 minutes

Then 5 rounds for time

  • 9 x Thrusters @ 95lbs
  • 12 x Pullups
  • 15 x V-Ups

Results: Front squats 135-155-170-185-195lbs. Plate walks went very well, but I am also progressing with my handstnd walks every time I try (up to 10 steps) so maybe that is the reason.  4 rounds plus 30 reps.
